God's Non-Transmittable Attributes (Part One): Omnipotence

Bible Study by Martin G. Collins

God's omnipotence is a non-transmittable attribute, setting Him wholly apart from His creation. He alone possesses this supreme power, reigning as the Sovereign and Supreme Being over the universe and beyond, with all power and authority originating from Him. He has the power to do all His pleasure and ensures the fulfillment of His plans without fail. Jesus confirms that with God all things are possible, and Job declares that no purpose of His can be withheld from Him. God's omnipotence, however, is not the power to do anything and everything without bounds, but the power to carry out the will of His perfect, divine nature without any constraints, though He cannot act contrary to His nature, such as lying or denying Himself. The prophet Jeremiah proclaims that God is the all-powerful Creator, with nothing too hard for Him, as He made the heavens and the earth by His great power. The Almighty Himself questions if anything is too hard for Him, and the prophet Isaiah describes the nations as a drop in a bucket before Him, emphasizing His infinite power to accomplish whatever He pleases, with His only restraints being self-imposed.
